Wayne, This certainly confirms everyone else's advice. Must be a feature copied from Microsoft 'cause I'm used to rebooting only when I've installed a new kernel. Regardless, Sunday morning when mail traffic is light and most folks are sleeping off Saturday night's excesses, I'll shut down the host, swap monitors and cables, and boot it back up. I'm certain from what you and Galen tell me that I'll be happy with the results.
